One reason that my posts have been a bit infrequent recently is that I've been working on some large projects which take a LONG time to do, and which don't give me much material for weekly posts. But I don't like to leave it too long between postings, so I'm trying to raid the archives for a few old designs that I haven't yet put up here. Here's one that I did some time ago, when I was still in my birds-in-trees mode (not that I ever seem to be out of the birds-in-trees mode…)
And yet more birds and leaves…
Because it's an old design I can't quite remember what inspired it, but it looks like another version of my old leaves-turning-into-birds idea. I never got round to framing it or using it for anything. but it would make a nice cushion cover
Hi Mia, Love your blast from the past. I really like how you digitized the grass and used similar stitches on the bird wings and tails of the bird. Hope you big projects are coming along in a timely manner.
Another lovely design. I hope one day you put the photos together in a sequence to see the evolution of your designs. That would be so interesting and these glimpses from the past do show it somewhat.
Love the birds! This would be great in a frame. (Two framed, side by side with one flipped, facing the other direction 🙂
Gorgeous! If framed (like Phyllis suggested), it could be placed next to a window… like the birds are flying towards it… 🙂
Quelle belle envolée printanière !
Merci Mia
Your work is lovely — I’ve been enjoying looking at the pictures. I found your blog because I am acquiring for my museum a painting by your mother. Would you be willing to email me directly? I have a few questions. Thanks! Sarah
Hi Mia, great piece of work. Looks to me like a tree in a bird fire. I like it very very much. Thank you for sharing it!
Mia, I’m playing catch-up from your previous posts. Beautiful! I agree with the above remarks, it does look like the birds are on fire. Deena
